An Altogether too Nice Distinc.
ton.

Mr.. George William Curtis, and other pro :
fessional civil service reformers who follow
his lead, attempt to draw distinction be-
tween President Cleveland AS an executor of
law and Grover Cleveland AS a professed
friend of civil service reform. They are
forced to admit the existence of grave and
outrageous abuses in the Federal service, and
the neglect of the President to carry out lis
freely given pledges on that subject; and this
they freely and emphatically condemn. At
the same time, however, thev seek to cover
neglect and failure with soft words,
and by expressing their admiration
tor Grover Cleveland as man The dis
tinction they attempt to make is one
altogether too nice to mark a difference. The
country does not forget that when repu olican
presidents, who had few of the opportunities
that Mr.. Cleveland has had for establishing
this reform, encountered greater difficulties
than have beset him, they were made by these
professional reformers the objects of the
severest criticism and no tender exceptions
or nice excuses were made on the score of
personal character. Mr. Curtis does not
seem to have the same conception of Mr..
Cleveland as does Senator VOORHEES,. The lat

/ sp0ils system He holds that the logic
Of our political constitution is that The
dominant party lncurS u resDOHSlDultV winch
1t can discharge only in pers and never by
proxy. For this reason Senator Voor hees has
been regarded as an opponent of the admin
istrati0n, and critic of the President. In a
recent interview, however, the senator speaks
for himself, and pays the President sincere
tribute. We could call attention of the re-
former defenders of the President to this
spoilsman's praise. He says:
Bat if you think nothing has been done to elimi-
nate republican partisan poison from our poiti al
system. suppose you cast Your minds eye around
over Indiana and see now many republican office.

dred and fifty young Indiana democrats who have

What Senator VOORHEES, says of Indiana
holds good for all other States. For the
clean sweep that has been made, Pre- sident
Cleveland is distinctly and clearly responsible.
r form has been, as the retormers admit,
abandoned. but until they further ADM, that
it has been abandoned by Grover Cleveland,
and cease talking about his good intentions
and prating of their own satisfaction at hav-
ing placed him in the presidency, as does Mr..
Curtis in the current number of Harper's
Weekly, they place themselves in the position
of defenders of hypocrisy as one of the
cardinal virtues.-Boston Trareiler.

Defence of the Glenn Bill.

The Boston Evening Herald of Friday
contains an article entitled the defence
of Georgia" in which it is endeavored to
be proved that sufficient causes exist for
the passage OF the Glenn bill which provides
for a compulsory education of the races in
separate schools. The argument is very
cleverlv made upon data which however
afford as good an argument for the
negative of the proposition. 1t is not
therefore very logical and conclusive.
The first point made is, the ''low moral
condition "of the plantation" negro. de.
mands his separation from the whites. The
passage of such bill as the Glenn bill
would by the exclusion of the negro OF
this class, cut off one of the most powerful
means for moral improvement. The in
fluence of civilization has never failed to
raise the worst specimens of humanity
from 'low moral condition" to at least a
realization of higher. The most sus-
ceptible period of lite upon which such
influence can be and is exerted, is child
hood. Consign these children to the untortu.
nate condition of their parents and there
can be no hope of moral Improvement.
If the separation of the children in the
public schools is to be made for fear that
the low moral ststusoi the negro children
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1887-08-15

will have a communicating influence upon
the morals of the white children, then the
legislators of Georgia are acknowledging
weakness which calls in question the
moral strength of the whites. Another
point made is, the "vast and irreconcilable
difference existing in the habits. tempera-
ments, mental capacity and the morale OF
the two races" furnishes reason for separ-
ate education. This argument, providing
the foundation is as represented, is turned
equally as easy. It's matter OF ordinary
observation among teachers that the
pupils of small mental capacity profit
by association with those of greater
scholastic ability. The negro acquires
by imitation as readily as any one.
In habits of politeness he is frequently the
superior of the whites. If the "ditfer-
ence in heredity" marks the difference in
development by SO great a number OF
years as 1890" in the progress from bar
barism, there is one humiliating fact to the
whites superior progress made by
the negro in less time and under most dis
advantageous circumstances which are in
part chargeable to slavery. If the State
is trying to improve its citizenship by such
legislation as the Glenn bill It is laboring
under very mistaken notions. Nor will
the generosity (?) of the whites in offer
ing 10 establish separate schools for the
negro, the larger part of the expense of
which must come upon the whites, afford
The impression of a sincerity of purpose.
Such argument is too transparent. 1t is
the avowed determination to keep the
negro Just where emancipation found
him. and to assure the superiority of the
whites by the forced degradation of
the negro Social rights do not come by
legislation, they come by thrift. patient
industry. economy and education" and
we'll knowing this fact, the whites of
Georgia solve the problem of their future
power by passing a law, which, while it
may appear to offer the negro equal but
separate school advantages with the
whites, really takes away those most po-
tent factors which tend 10 elevate and de-
velope. The defence of the Glenn bill
must rest with those whose conceptions of
moral and STANDARDIZATION. are dwarted
